Chapter 2 The Huihe People Taken Care of by Heaven

Naha is a beautiful Huihe girl!

She just lay under the belly of a goat and sucked delicious goat milk, and then smiled at Yunchu with a dirty face and two white marks left by snot under her nose.

She was also missing two big front teeth...

"Brother, let's go catch marmots!"

Facing her brother's gloomy eyes, Naha quickly wiped her nose with the sleeve of her shiny leather coat, and once again showed her strange and flattering smile.

"I washed your robe for you just the day before yesterday, and I used plant ash. Why did it become like this in two days?"

"Huihe people don't wash their robes!" Naha fought back stubbornly.

Yunchu's robe was not very new. Compared with Naha's new robe, his robe looked relatively old. Even so, Yunchu's robe could still see the original wrinkles of the sheepskin, and even the soft wool on the cuffs was clearly visible, unlike Naha's sheepskin coat, where the wool on the cuffs had already formed into felt pieces.

As a brother, Yunchu felt that he had the responsibility to teach Naha to love cleanliness. How could a girl not love cleanliness?

So, on a sunny morning, on a hillside covered with green spring grass, Yunchu raised his hand, and Naha's heart-wrenching cry rang out again. Yunchu knew that he was not his mother Selaima's biological son, but Naha was her biological daughter.

However, Selaima insisted that Yunchu, who had black eyes, black hair, and yellow skin, was born after nine months of pregnancy, and she saw Yunchu crawling out of her intestines with her own eyes... So, as a person being raised, Yunchu could not raise any objections.

He dragged Naha to the Grasshopper Lake, took off her fur coat, and then wrapped the naked six-year-old dirty girl with his fur coat, roughly washed her face, hands and feet, and soon, a pink little face appeared in front of him.

Selaima often said that she was a rare beauty among the Huihe people, and Yunchu was a handsome man that the Huihe people had never seen before, so Naha should be the future number one beauty in the Huihe tribe!

Yunchu didn't understand why her pure Tang appearance would affect the appearance of Naha, who had light yellow hair and two green eyes. She thought it was purely a trick of Selaima to use Naha's appearance to conceal Yunchu's origin.

This trick was very clumsy, but the people in the tribe really believed it. Many women even swore that when Selaima's belly was one circumference big, Yunchu was rolled out of Selaima's belly by them stepping on a wooden stick.

Since hearing this legend, Yunchu finally understood why Huihe people only stayed in their mother's belly for nine months.

Naha is an exception!

After Selima was pregnant with Naha for nine months, a group of Huihe women, led by a witch, took wooden sticks to help Selima give birth. At that time, Yunchu, who was seven years old, stood guard at the entrance of the tent with a knife, waving the knife like a madman until she cut the witch's buttocks. This prevented Selima from being rolled out of Naha by the wooden stick, and Naha was born at full term.

Children born at full term are better than those who were rolled out by wooden sticks.

When Naha could crawl, she could accurately find the ewe with milk in the sheepfold, and she would hold the milk follicle and sip without any instruction. After drinking enough milk, she would curl up under the belly of the milk sheep and sleep warmly with the other lambs next to the ewe...

Yunchu brought her back from the sheepfold countless times, and she would make the same choice as long as she had the chance.

Selima was very proud. She believed that only a strong mother like her could give birth to two good children who could grow up healthily without much care.

Yunchu needless to say, this child has never peed or smeared feces on her. When he was still a little meat ball, he knew to express his need for urination or defecation through humming or crying.

When he could walk, he knew to drink goat milk with a bowl in his arms, and he would find some strange food by himself. Moreover, whenever he had the chance, he would ferociously pounce on the arms of a woman with milk and tear open her clothes to find milk.

With Yunchu as an example, Naha had the habit of looking for milk goats, so Selaima felt that it was not a big deal.

Yunchu found it hard to accept. Family members knew their own affairs. If he hadn't done that at that time, with Selaima's rough way of looking after children, he would not have had the slightest chance of living until now.

Fortunately, Naha is a very healthy child. From birth to now, she has never been sick. This has to say that the silly child is really taken care of by God.

Yunchu used the women around him to calculate that for every ten children born by the Huihe people, two pregnant women died and three children died.

This is still children born from spring to autumn. If it is winter, the mortality rate will be about one-third higher.

The chances of a baby living to the age of six-year-old Naha are reduced by about half.

Like other Huihe women, Selaima can only give birth to children but not raise them. If it weren't for Yunchu, Naha's child would have died eight times.

Rather than saying that Naha is Selaima's daughter, it's better to say that Naha is Yunchu's child. After all, he has been taking care of this child since she was born.

"Brother, shall we eat marmots?"

Naha's little face, which had just been washed, was full of saliva flowing down her chin. Yunchu sighed and rubbed her face with water again.

As long as he persists, he will be able to save this child from the rough living habits of the Huihe people.

The advantage of a fur coat is that it basically does not need to be washed with water. You only need to use the newly grown alkali grass to wipe it once to remove most of the dirt on it.

Just as Yunchu put on the fur coat for Naha, tied the belt, put on the leather boots, and prepared to call the sheep home, a wolf howl suddenly came from not far away.

"Woo——"

Naha was so scared that she dived into Yunchu's arms, while Yunchu looked at the instigator with a fierce look.

A boy wearing a sheepskin hat and holding up his pants, leading a big-tailed ewe came from the other side of the valley. As he walked, he imitated the wolf's howl. It seemed that he and the sheep were really in love.

They didn't avoid people for such things before, especially these proud teenagers, who even liked to get praise from others for this matter.

Yunchu was the bravest boy in the Aries tribe of the Nine-surname Tiele Huihe.

He was the first boy in the Aries tribe who dared to climb the cliff to catch the mountain sheep.

He is also the first boy in the tribe who can subdue an argali with his bare hands.

He even single-handedly beat up twelve children from the tribe. Yes, it was a group beating. Yun Chu beat a group of them by himself.

Ever since the lovemaking process between the Huihe boy and the big-tailed sheep was so irritating that I couldn't bear it. Yunchu began to beat those teenagers who liked to make love with big-tailed sheep in front of him.

After seven or eight beatings, they finally learned and understood that if they wanted to avoid being beaten, they had to offer the big-tailed sheep with the best-looking butts to Yun Chu...

So, Yunchu continued to beat them. They would not listen to you if you reasoned with them. Instead, they would think that you were afraid of him. In the Aries tribe, being reasonable meant that you thought you could not beat them.

The principle they can understand and recognize is the fist!

Yun Chu had gone through hundreds of battles and gained countless combat experience. After he had no single enemy under his command, the boys of the Aries tribe finally learned not to show affection to the big-tailed sheep in front of Yun Chu.

That's right, they were beaten countless times, and they only understood this. As for Yun Chu's frequent comments that if he liked this kind of thing, he should go find the girls in the Aries tribe, they completely ignored it.

Of course, this also has a lot to do with the fact that the girls in the Aries tribe are all pale and thin, and not good-looking at all. At least, the girls in the Aries tribe don't have the buttocks of big-tailed sheep, not even one of them.

Yun Chu stroked Naha's light yellow hair with one hand, and squinted at the guy who tied his belt into a knot because of panic.

He had made up his mind in his heart that as long as this wolf dared to approach him, or put his dirty hands on the back of his sheep, he would kick this dirty guy's dog legs!

The Huihe boy Mi Man saw Yun Chu early. He didn't want to pass by Yun Chu's grazing land, but his legs were weak at this time and he didn't want to take a long detour. So he bravely imitated the wolf's howl, said hello to Yun Chu, and bit the bullet and led the ewe through Yun Chu's grazing land.

"Yunchu! I didn't touch your sheep!"

Mi Man tied the leather rope to his waist, raised his hands and walked past Yunchu's flock tremblingly.

"You'd better walk more steadily. In addition, keep an eye on your naughty sheep. If you dare to drop a hair and dirty my flock, I will break your dog legs!"

After hearing what Yunchu said, Mi Man was shocked and kicked the ewe's butt hard. The ewe screamed in pain and dragged Mi Man to her own flock until she disappeared from Yunchu's sight.

"Brother, cook marmot for me!"

Not seeing the wolf, Naha became lively again.

"Why eat marmot? That thing is not clean!"

"I want to eat marmot-wow!"

Yunchu threw Naha on his back roughly and patted the black-eyed ram beside him.

"Baa..." Black-eyed ram screamed twice, and Yunchu's ewes naturally gathered around Black-eyed ram.

The grazing effect today is very good. Every sheep has a full belly. It's time to go home.

"Aoao——"

A louder and more powerful shout came from the other side of Grasshopper Lake, and then a war horse appeared on the horizon, followed by the second and third horses, and then countless horse heads appeared from behind the small hill, pouring down like waves.

Yun Chu couldn't get enough of the scene of thousands of horses galloping, especially the horses in the sunset, covered with golden light, with majestic limbs and high heads, as if nothing in the world could stop it, full of power and beauty.

The Huihe cavalry is so brave!

There are several human heads hanging under the neck of the war horse running in the front, and it is unclear whether the left ear of the head is still there.

Their shouts are full of joy and pride of victory.

These cavalrymen ran around the Aries camp three times, then stuck human heads on wood and shot arrows at them while riding horses to show the powerful military force of the Aries.

The human heads were placed next to the tribal camp and slowly waited for them to rot, letting the stench cover the entire tribal camp, and then slowly waited for flies to breed maggots on them, and then slowly waited for the fly eggs to hatch, and more flies were produced to spread the plague.

This was a matter of course, but Yun Chu had not seen a very strong plague in the long thirteen years.

Thinking of the powerful Uighurs hundreds of years later, Yun Chu had to admit that God really took care of fools!
